Barisal faced an early setback, losing Ibrahim Zadran for 32 runs. However, Tamim Iqbal forged a crucial 34-run partnership with Mehedi Miraz. Tamim's aggressive innings of 35 runs off 24 balls, featuring 5 fours and 1 six, marked his return after a four-month hiatus, overcoming a back injury. Soumya Sarkar's brief stint ended with 1 run, but Mahmudullah (19) and Shoaib Malik (17) guided the team to victory, following the solid performances of Mushfiqur (26) and Miraj (20).
Rangpur's batting struggled from the outset, with Mohammad Imran Jr. setting the tone by dismissing Brand King with the first ball. Despite efforts from Nurul Hasan (23), Shamim Hossain (34), and Sheikh Mehdi (29), Rangpur managed to reach a total of 130 runs. Star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan, post his election as a Member of Parliament, was dismissed for a mere 2 runs.
Khaled Ahmed played a pivotal role for Barisal, claiming 4 wickets for 31 runs, while Mehdi Hasan Miraj contributed with two wickets for 13 runs. Mohammad Imran, Shoaib Malik, and Dunith Wellalage each took one wicket, collectively orchestrating Barisal's successful defense.
